MLG signs pro-abortion executive order to further promote abortions

15 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

On Monday, pro-abortion Democrat Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham signed a radical executive order further “protecting abortion access” in New Mexico, despite abortion up-to-birth being a free for all after she signed a 2021 bill that stripped all protections for women, babies, and medical professionals.

According to a press release from Lujan Grisham’s office, it said she would “sign an executive order on Monday protecting abortion access in New Mexico as laws preventing necessary reproductive health care have gone into effect or are soon to go into effect in states across the country.”

Gabrielle Burkhart of KRQE 13 News reported that Lujan Grisham “says her executive order signals to other states that local abortion providers will be legally protected as long as she’s governor. i.e. Gov. will not execute any (potential) warrants for extradition related to this issue.”

“If there’s an opportunity, you get it fixed and addressed,” the Governor said regarding “LGBTQ” health care.

“My opponent on this issue has very extreme views,” Lujan Grisham claimed, referring to Republican gubernatorial nominee Mark Ronchetti.

State Sen. Linda Lopez (D-Bernalillo), who is in the Democrat senate leadership, claimed a 15-week abortion ban is a “non-starter.” 

“It creates more life loss,” Lujan Grisham claimed regarding a bill to limit abortions in the state.

Lujan Grisham closed off the press conference by yelling, “More! More! More,” referring to abortion.  

According to Dan Boyd of the Albuquerque Journal, the executive order “protects health care professionals and assets state will not… comply with abortion-related extradition requests from other states.”

Angry pro-aborts protest Dobbs opinion despite NM having unlimited abortion

4 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

On Friday night, abortion supporters gathered in Albuquerque at Tiguex Park to protest the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision on Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned both the pro-abortion Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey decisions from 1973 and 1992, respectively. 

Joining in the protest included scandal-ridden alleged serial groper Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, far-left U.S. Rep. Melanie Stansbury, Secretary of State Maggie Toulouse Oliver, and other pro-abortion state lawmakers — all Democrats.

Lujan Grisham promised the crowd of pro-aborts, “we’re going to do more in the 60-day session. We’re going to continue to expand and protect access.” That is if the Governor is reelected and Democrats keep control of the New Mexico House of Representatives, both being up for grabs in the November General Election.

According to one person who was “incognito” attending the pro-abortion protest, signs, and statements from the crowd included many vulgar, misandristic sentiments.

“Regulate your d**k” said one attendee. Another father of three had a t-shirt reading, “Satanic Motherf**ker.

Far-left state Sen. Antoinette Sedillo-Lopez (D-Bernalillo) claimed while speaking, “Trump was selected by the electoral college,” spreading election conspiracy theories.

Another speaker yelled, “F**k the United States government,” according to one attendee.

On the front page of the Albuquerque Journal’s website with the paper’s article about the event features attendees holding uncensored “F**k Thomas” signs, referring to the pro-life Supreme Court Justice, Clarence Thomas. 

The radical pro-abortion protest was co-hosted by the Democrat Party of New Mexico, the Party for Socialism and Liberation, the ACLU, and Planned Parenthood, among others.

In 2021, pro-abortion Democrats rammed through S.B. 10, which legalized abortion up to birth in New Mexico by stripping all protections for women, babies, and medical professionals, making the state the most hostile to the unborn and to pro-life medical professionals.

Unless New Mexicans elect pro-life leaders to the Roundhouse and the Governor’s Mansion in November, more pro-abortion extremism can be expected.

Ronchetti breaks his silence on U.S. Supreme Court abortion decision

12 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

On Friday, the Republican nominee for governor Mark Ronchetti broke his silence on the U.S. Supreme Court’s landmark Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization ruling, which overturned the pro-abortion Roe v. Wade.

He released the following statement:

Today’s Court ruling paves the way for a measured dialogue on the issue of abortion that will save lives and should result in policies that are more mainstream and reflect our shared values.

The Governor has taken an extreme position on abortion, out of step with most New Mexicans, in believing that abortion should be unrestricted – all the way up to the moment a child is born. This has made New Mexico the late-term abortion capital of North America and does not reflect our values.

While I am pro-life, governors cannot act alone and any changes to our laws will require collaboration and agreement with the legislature. As Governor, I would seek a middle ground with our legislature that ends the practice of late-term and partial-birth abortion that the current Governor supports. I believe permitting abortion up to 15 weeks and in cases involving rape, incest, and when a mother’s life is at risk is a very reasonable position that most in New Mexico will support regardless of party affiliation. This will end the barbaric practice of late-term abortions. I will also strongly support policies that provide support to expectant mothers and their unborn children.

He added:

I am pro-life and believe abortion should be rare. Governor Lujan-Grisham supports abortion up to the very moment a child is born. Her position is extreme and does not reflect our values. It’s time to end the barbaric practice of late-term abortion in New Mexico.

Pro-abortion Democrat Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham wrote following the statement, “Today, a new generation of women will be forced to face a future where they cannot seek safe, legal abortions. We have long feared this moment and I’m going to continue to fight like hell to ensure every New Mexico woman has access to reproductive health care.” 

The governor added in another statement from her official gubernatorial account that she thinks women will now be “second-class citizens” because they don’t have the right to kill their babies protected on a national level.

As pro-lifers rejoice Roe’s fall, MLG promises to ‘fight like hell’ for abortions

12 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

On Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the 1973 decision Roe v. Wade and the 1992 decision Planned Parenthood v. Casey were overturned in a shocking 5-4 decision.

Following the game-changing ruling, New Mexicans responded to the news.

Piñon Post editor and GOP nominee for House District 51, John Block, wrote:

As a pro-lifer and as a human of morals, seeing the deadly Roe v. Wade decision overturned marks one of the most important moments in our nation’s history. From helping women find life-affirming options on the sidewalk outside of Planned Parenthood abortion centers to fighting hard to stop pro-abortion bills in our Legislature, all of our hard work has finally paid off in a tangible way.

But the fight in New Mexico has only just begun. Radical Democrats are hell-bent on killing as many precious unborn babies in our state as possible, which is why we must fight hard against their agenda of death. As the next representative for New Mexico’s House District 51, I will sponsor bills to protect life from conception to natural death, and I will continue to work tirelessly to stop anti-life bills. 

What an amazing day for the right to life in our Country, and may God continue to give us strength as we work to restore a culture of life in New Mexico.

Pro-abortion Democrat Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham wrote, “Today, a new generation of women will be forced to face a future where they cannot seek safe, legal abortions. We have long feared this moment and I’m going to continue to fight like hell to ensure every New Mexico woman has access to reproductive health care.” 

The governor added in another statement from her official gubernatorial account that she thinks women will now be “second-class citizens” because they don’t have the right to kill their babies protected on a national level.

Far-left U.S. Rep. Melanie Stansbury of New Mexico’s First  Congressional District wrote, “The extreme and dangerous decision by SCOTUS this morning sets the clock back on human rights and gender equality by decades.”

She added, “While abortion remains safe and legal in New Mexico—this decision will block people across the country from receiving care. The time for the Senate to act is now! The time to organize is now!”

Fellow far-left U.S. Rep. Teresa Leger Fernandez of New Mexico’s Third Congressional District wrote, “Abortion is SAFE AND LEGAL in New Mexico. The Supreme Court just voted to take away women’s autonomy and end Roe v. Wade. This is an unprecedented unraveling of the right to bodily privacy and choice”

She continued, “New Mexico codified abortion access in 2021 when @GovMLG signed SB-10 and removed a 1969 law that criminalized abortion. 26 states may quickly ban abortion, and 13 will implement trigger bans. New Mexico expects an influx of patients who will need this lifesaving care. We must do everything to ensure they get the care they need. Congress must codify the right to choose under law.”

Pro-life advocate Elisa Martinez wrote, “Today, a new generation of women will have the right to be born.”

“RPNM applauds this momentous ruling and the Court’s realization that we must protect the sanctity of life,” said Republican Party of New Mexico Chairman Steve Pearce following the opinion. “The decision is in the best interest of America, and the high court’s Justices have fulfilled their duty to protect the lives of the unborn and to abolish the horrors of abortion. Abortion is wrong on moral grounds, and I and everyone who stand for life am pleased at the outcome in this important ruling.”

NM governor’s race changes from ‘Leans Democrat’ to ‘Toss Up’

Leave a Comment / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

On Wednesday, it was revealed that New Mexico’s gubernatorial race has been shifted from a “Lean Democrat” to a “Toss Up,” according to those following the race.

This is a big deal for New Mexico, as Republicans have a good shot of reclaiming the governor’s mansion in November amid dissatisfaction with Democrat Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, who has been involved in a myriad of scandals throughout her short but destructive tenure. 

Republicans have nominated former television weatherman Mark Ronchetti, while Libertarians have nominated businesswoman Karen Bedonie to challenge Lujan Grisham.

According to the most recent poll commissioned by the leftist New Mexico Political Report, Ronchetti only trails Lujan Grisham by three points, while Bedonie holds 9% of the vote share. 

An internal poll from the Ronchetti campaign shows the Republican beating Lujan Grisham by one point, making the race for the governorship a competitive one.

A Republican-affiliated group began running a television advertisement Wednesday highlighting the Governor’s misuse of taxpayer funds to buy $200/lb Wagyu beef steaks, booze, and other personal items. 

The Governor also previously settled with a former staffer for $150,000 after the man accused her of pouring water over his crotch and then grabbing his genitals. 

The best Democrats have against Ronchetti is that he is a “weatherman,” claiming he has “no experience.” 

Republicans are largely ignoring Democrats’ attacks, as they likely see a conservative being far better than a scandal-ridden political insider.

Leftist poll shows MLG is in big trouble as conservatives pick apart her record

11 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

According to a poll commissioned by the leftist New Mexico Political Report (NMPR), which is affiliated with the George Soros-funded ProgressNow New Mexico, Democrat Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham is in serious trouble.

The poll shows Lujan Grisham barely leading with 45%. Republican gubernatorial nominee Mark Ronchetti trails with 42%, while 9% said they are voting for Libertarian Karen Bedonie. Bedonie was formerly running for governor as a Republican but switched her party affiliation. She won the Libertarian primary against write-in candidate Ginger Grider. 

According to NMPR, the poll is within the margin of error for Lujan Grisham — showing dangerous territory for the vulnerable Democrat. It was done by Public Policy Polling, which is rated an A- on FiveThirtyEight and skews Democrat by 0.9 percentage points.

“Lujan Grisham holds a large lead among those who voted for Biden in 2020, 86 percent to 6 percent, with 4 percent saying they would vote for Bedonie. Ronchetti, meanwhile, leads among Trump voters 88 percent to 8 percent for Bedonie and 1 percent for Lujan Grisham,” wrote NMPR.

A recent internal poll from the Ronchetti campaign showed that Lujan Grisham is trailing him by one point, but it did not specify if respondents voting for Bedonie were factored in.

The seat is one that is in the pick-up column for Republicans. The Republican Governors Association (RGA)-affiliated “Get Families Back to Work” group has already booked hundreds of thousands in television airtime targeting Lujan Grisham on multiple scandals, including the misuse of her discretionary fund to buy luxury $200/lb Wagyu beef steaks, alcohol (which is prohibited), and other unscrupulous goods, such as dry cleaning and products for her pet.

The Albuquerque Journal reported that the RGA was spending around $179,000 so far this cycle in New Mexico.

‘Political newbie’: MLG gets desperate as Ronchetti takes polling lead

8 Comments / New Mexico, Politics / By

On Saturday, scandal-ridden alleged serial groper Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s team sent out a panicked email ruthlessly bashing Republican gubernatorial nominee Mark Ronchetti with personal attacks and falsehoods.

The campaign claims Ronchetti, who is a political moderate, is a “far-right extremist who wants to bring MAGA values to New Mexico,” despite Ronchetti distancing himself from President Donald Trump.

Her team then went on to claim his policy positions are radical, brandishing him as “wishy-washy on climate science” and as someone who “wants to stall environmental action.” 

The Lujan Grisham campaign then hit him with a personal attack that also doubles as an attack on political outsiders running for office, writing, “And, he’s a political newbie with no public service experience – just like Donald Trump.”

She did not, however, lob this attack on people like U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ), or other politicians in her own party who never held elected office before running.

“We need your help to show the GOP that New Mexico is NOT up for grabs,” the campaign wrote, referencing a KOB 4 poll showing Ronchetti trailing Lujan Grisham by a mere four points.

But most startling, this week, the Ronchetti campaign released an internal poll claiming it was leading the embattled governor by one point with 46% to Lujan Grisham’s 45%. According to the numbers released, the poll has a margin of error of four percentage points. 

Lujan Grisham also began attacking Ronchetti on television, using a Democrat ex-police chief to claim the GOP nominee, who is a former television weatherman, doesn’t know how to fight crime. Crime rates have hit their highest peaks in New Mexico under Lujan Grisham, especially in Democrat-run Albuquerque, where homicides have hit historic highs.

Libertarian gubernatorial nominee Karen Bedonie, a former Republican, is also in contention for the governorship.

MLG applauds GOP senators selling out Americans’ gun rights

6 Comments / New Mexico, News, Opinion, Politics / By

Over the weekend, it was reported that ten Republican U.S. Senators are joining with far-left Democrats to pass an extreme anti-gun bill that includes “red flag” legislation to rip away Americans’ due process rights and corrode the Second Amendment.

The Democrat senator leading the talks is Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut, and the leader of Republican negotiations is Sen. John Cornyn of Texas.

Scandal-ridden alleged serial groper Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham of New Mexico, a far-left Democrat, could barely contain her excitement with the potential of new anti-gun legislation being passed federally.

She wrote on Twitter, “Today, there is hope for bipartisan action on gun safety. While we have taken significant steps to reduce gun violence, NM will benefit from @ChrisMurphyCT and @JohnCornyn’s commonsense policies.”

The Governor continued, “I call on the Senate to quickly take up this proposal — the time to act is now.”

Lujan Grisham also thanked New Mexico’s radical Democrat Sen. Martin Heinrich, writing, “I’m grateful to the Senators including our own @TeamHeinrich. Together they found a bipartisan solution to address #GunViolence. This is a step in the right direction.”

The Democrats in the New Mexico Legislature, in tandem with Lujan Grisham, rammed through extreme anti-gun legislation in the form of a “red flag” law, among other measures such as funding $300,000 annually for an “Office of Gun Violence Prevention” to take away New Mexicans’ Second Amendment rights.

Despite Lujan Grisham’s rhetoric, her administration has overseen some of the highest crime in New Mexico, with her agenda being chiefly responsible for continued unrest in the streets. In Albuquerque, crime hit an all-time high, while homicides broke historic records. 

These results came while Lujan Grisham worked with far-left Democrats in the Legislature to strip away qualified immunity rights of peace officers, institute “social justice” reforms to the criminal system, and let dangerous criminals back on the streets to ravage New Mexico streets. She also applauded Antifa/Black Lives Matter protesters who defied her lockdown orders to hold violent protests in the streets of Albuquerque.

However, Lujan Grisham and her fellow Democrats in New Mexico continue to bang the gong demanding an erosion of Americans’ constitutional right to keep and bear arms.

Lujan Grisham dances around at ‘pride’ parade before meeting Biden

14 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

On Saturday, scandal-ridden alleged serial groper Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham had a busy day placating her far-left base at the Albuquerque “pride” parade. She appeared at the parade wearing a pink tutu, joined by far-left U.S. Rep. Melanie Stansbury of the First Congressional District, Democrat congressional candidate Gabe Vasquez, and others.

On Twitter, she posted photos from the parade. She wrote, “It’s a great weekend for a #Pride parade.” 

Lujan Grisham’s campaign staffer Kendall Witmer wrote that the Governor was “celebrating diversity and inclusivity with ABQ’s LGBTQIA+ community.”

She can be seen in footage dancing and high-fiving attendees: 

Then at 1:30 p.m., Lujan Grisham and the far-left Democrat New Mexico delegation met with Joe Biden to speak about the wildfires in New Mexico.

Attendees included Navajo Nation President Jonathan Nez, U.S. Reps. Melanie Stansbury and Teresa Leger Fernandez, U.S. Senators Martin Heinrich and Ben Ray Luján, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland, and others. The Santa Fe New Mexican’s Daniel Chacón reported that Republican U.S. Rep. Yvette Herrell of the Second District also was in attendance.

Protesters were spotted with “F**k Biden” and “Trump Won” flags greeting Joe Biden.

MLG’s Enviro Dept. awards far-left Dem lawmaker for pushing her agenda

2 Comments / New Mexico, News, Politics / By

Although New Mexico’s state agencies are supposedly meant to be nonpartisan, since they are taxpayer-funded, scandal-ridden alleged serial groper Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s administration is flagrantly changing that. 

Other than her revolving door of cabinet members flooding in and out of her controversy-driven administration, Lujan Grisham’s Environment Department is now giving awards to far-left Democrats.

On Thursday, first-term state Sen. Diah Correa Hemphill, a far-left abortion up-to-birth Democrat, was given the “Champion of Protecting Public Health and Environment Award” from the Department. 

Hemphill wrote on Twitter, “I was honored to receive the New Mexico Environment Department’s 2022 Champion in Protecting Public Health and Environment award for supporting the Governor’s initiatives to protect and restore the environment and foster a healthy and prosperous New Mexico for present and future generations.” She thanked James Kenney, the Environment Department’s secretary.

Kenney wrote in reply, “Congratulations and well deserved Senator! Thank you for all you do to support the mission of the @NMEnvDep!”

The extreme left-wing senator supported all the farthest left proposals in the legislature, including one that would result in an at least 50 cent-per-gallon increase in gas prices.

The Environment Department’s official account retweeted Hemphill, replying with a “First Place” emoji and clapping emojis. 

One commenter on Twitter noted, “Well I gotta hand it to Siah. At least she admits that she got the legislative equivalent of a participation trophy. I didn’t alter one word, just erased the sugar.”
